Recently, practically less than twenty years, there is a revolutionary therapy, his name is EMDR. Stands for Eyes Movement desensitization and reprocessing, which means Desensitization and Reprocessing with eye movement, but despite the name does not necessarily mean eye movement therapy as an important moment, but you can do in other ways.
only beginning its author, Francine Shapiro, thought that the eye movement was the only way to ensure that the brain had the energy needed to reprocess the negative event, then it was discovered that can also be used tactile or auditory sensory stimulation.
If you choose the eye movement, the method involves exposing the patient to different sets of eye movements while they focused on negative emotions. Then everything goes back to the patient in focusing on the desired conditions. Every time you self-evaluate the patient and the degree of discomfort that feels like the degree to which the true condition desirable.
Although this approach is still controversial, especially among the academic, clinical results are quite encouraging, especially in the treatment of post traumatic stress disorder. Those who have suffered trauma, including severe as rape, or has escaped death, or has seen someone dying up close, in many cases may be affected by this anxiety disorder. And if many treatments did not work at all, in this field, EMDR seems to be that the success rate further, in several comparative studies.
